Try switching to a different theme, like the WordPress default theme.

Why I Like Japan

Wednesday, February 27th, 2008

This is a video asnwering the question that is often asked of people who live in Japan which is basically ”Why do you like Japan?”

Mainly my three reasons:
*History
*Festivals
*Culture

Plus I also like the food, hot sake, and cold Sapporo beer.

When I first came to Japaan, I didn’t have the economic security to spend much time getting around or getting into the culture. I slowly came to acquire a love of Japan rather than coming over here head-over-heels with Japan to begin with.

On my trials and turbulations during my first year, check out my Ronin Teacher Saga:
Saga of a Ronin English Teacher

Background music by Super Girl Juice. I meet them in Tokyo and bought their CD last year.
